Antique Book Covers? - Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories

I read through most of the threads here, but I am still looking for case that was designed for the 7.7.
The style I am hoping for is like the Verso:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005I6EU7U/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Or the Twelve South line:
http://twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook_ipad/
The Verso looks closest, and it would probably fit but the thickness (.7) might be a little big for the 7.7 (.31).
Anyone find a case with a similar style and good fit?
Thanks much!

Not an Antique Bookcover but still a book like cover that fits quite well:
Moleskine Cover for Kindle Keyboard (search on Amazon)...

The one from Twelve South is really great!! I will definitely buy one if there was a 7.7 version!

Looking for bag

I am looking to a bag for my SII. I bought a golla bag that was suppose to work, but it's was to small. I do have a casemate over the phone, so it needs to be fairly good size. Anyone know if such a thing?
Thanks,
Jim

Hanes crew cut sock.
If this guys cases are the size he says they are 14x9 cm They should fit, he has 7 to choose from, white is sold out:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Golla-Bag-m...680850?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b25c9dd2
Or this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Golla-Gener...501768?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item33677bd8c8
Just kidding (EDIT: Wow I just saw on ebay there really is Phone Socks)
Is this the golla? Too small? : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-GOLLA..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item336f15da57 it looks good actually, kinda strange but good.
It could probably fit in here, but without the casemate: http://www.ebay.in/itm/Waterproof-Bag-Case-Cover-Samsung-Galaxy-S-2-i9100-/270790896632
nvm, it'd fit in the golla w/o casemate too.
This ones cool, but not exactly a pouch! http://www.gadgetmost.com/673/samsung-galaxys-leather-case-bluetooth-keyboard.html
EDIT2: There are larger golla bags out there (Like for camera's or larger phones, Just look for one 4x6 should fit the casemate
Our phone is (with my sgp case) 2 and 3/4 by 5 and 1/10 === Basically 3 by 5 so 4 by 6 should fit the case. Or 10 x 14 or 15 cm

[Q] Best Case?

I just got a Tab for Christmas and was wondering, what is/are your favorite case(s)? I'm looking for a case with a built in stand and good protection. Material and cost really don't matter.
I have had the official samsung galaxy tab 10.1 case for several months now and it's holding up nicely. Contrary to 3rd party cases, it fits the tab perfectly, not adding excessive bulk to the tab. You can stand the tab up or just have it rest at an incline. When completly opened it gives much better grip to hold the tab with one hand. You'll find several reviews on youtube if you search for "galaxy tab 10.1 case review"

Are you referring to the Official Book Cover? The only problem is the cost, is the case worth the ~$60 price?
360 case by pyro skins. Great case

Yeah... That's the one I was referring to. It is in fact a little steep at ~60$, but I find it's worth it because of the fit. The leather ones wrap around the corners and cover the sides, which actually may protect the tab better, but I just don't like the extra bulk... The galaxy tab 10.1 is a very thin tablet, I want a case that keeps it that way as much as possible.
On youtube one of the reviews compares the official case to the Belkin one, which gives a good idea of diffences in fit.

I really like it.
Clip case by Pyro Skins. I sent an email to him applauding the case and mentioned what MAY have been a problem with the case, and 30 minutes later I had a tracking # for a second case, no questions asked. You cant beat that kind of customer service.
Indeed the Official Samsung Book Case takes this one. Very functional and keeps the thin profile of the device. Only gripe is when taking pictures, since you'd have to hole up the front cover. But who takes a lot of snaps from their tabs anyway?
I do. Not a problem with Pyro Skins. Also thin and cheaper to buy.
I chose 360 case because of
A. Price
B. Don't have to leave case open in order to charge the tab. I want my tablet covered when left out on desk/table when charging. The official book case has to be left open to charge (I believe).

I agree
this case is very thin and I love it
After looking at all the suggestions, I purchased the VIPERTEK Premium Slim Leather Case Folio with Built-In Standbest from Amazon for $25. I really wanted a clip case and I chose the ViperTek over the PyroSkins clip case for the ability to charge while the case is closed. Thank you all for your input.
I am using the Belkin - Ultrathin Folio & very happy with the case so far.
Drop Tech Series
I got the official samsung case and it's pretty awsome. A little expensive tough. A friend of mine was looking for a case for his tab and he found a similar case at dealextream. It does look a lot like mine, at least from the pictures.

"Smart Cover" style cases?

I find the smart cover case of my iPad 2 is ideal for typing in "landscape keyboard" mode. I haven't found any cases on eBay etc that do this except some really bulky/fugly ones. Has anyone found anything elegant/thin along the lines of the iPad 2 smart cover yet? I realize the GT7.7 doesn't have the logic to turn off when the cover is closed, I can live without that!
The original Samsung OEM case/cover looks very nice but doesn't seem to stand on its own in landscape keyboard mode

As long as the surface is not overly smooth, the Samsung Original Book Cover case does stand in landscape (thanks to rubber strips that adds friction). See pics. May not *look* especially stable, but it does seem to hold out nicely.
Ironically, I would like to see a case that allows my tab to stand in portrait mode, since I'm more likely to read that way. Never seen one before.
I have a case similar to the official iPad1 case. Very slim and snug fit. Doesn't add much to the size of the device, keeping the original slimness. Its faux leather on the outside and suede cloth inside. It has the same standing mechanism as the iPad1 case too. Comes in a few colours, I got the brown one.
I've been looking for exactly this type of case and was amazed they are made. I believe I can post images now and so I'll put some up later.

A similar one popped up on eBay last night for $25. Seller is in HK of course. What site did you find this on?
Tmall.com taobao.com
chinese webiste
that one cost RMB120
I found it at http://www.minihotsale.com/rock-sam...blet-light-cool-folio-leather-case_p1435.html
$35 shipped, not terrible. I like that it doesn't intrude on the bezel the way some of the other folios do.
Thanks cyuet for pointing me in the right direction! Will advise once received.
looks good

Thats the one. I personally prefer cases that give all round protection and this case does that. I find cases that only grip the corners can come loose over time, and badly made ones have terrible tolerances and may not even adequetly hold the device.
Thanks

I also think that a case like the smart cover for the ipad2 is ideal for the tab 7.7. I have seen those for the 10.1 and 8.9 on ebay, and I am pretty sure they will pop up for the 7.7 soon.

UK based case for £8.99
I just received this case i bought from ebay for the bargain price of £8.99 in the UK and delivered from the UK too.
Very pleased with it! I've tried the official case but this is much better. It even has magnets on the flap to stop it flapping open when carrying.

That's basically exactly the same as the one I posted above except my link is cheaper and located in the UK (minus the screen protector but they are pence anyway)

Tablet S skin.

Hi.
In thinking about buying one of the gel skins off eBay USA. I've just got the tablet and I'm finding it a bit plasticky and hollow sounding. I'm thinking that a skin might deaden the sound a bit.
Can anyone vouch for the quality of them?

Looks good and US $11.99 is not a bad price. Amazon.com has the same item labeled "by Sony" in black (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) and purple (ASIN: B007BXZYPA) for US $7.99 with free Amazon Prime Membership 2-day shipping. Non-Prime standard 3-day shipping is probably US $2.99, but I'm guessing the cost.
Hi Cat.
I'll be shipping to the UK so I need to factor in shipping. The Amazon one just looks like the same one off ebay - it doesn't look Sony branded.
For some bizarre reason I can't find them in the UK at all. Very strange.
They are both roughly the same price so I'll just choose either.
Thanks.
i seen that cover but only question is that will the case cover the IR remote on top of the tablet?

I ordered one from Amazon.com and will receive it tomorrow evening. After I install it on the tablet, I will post here to let you know whether or not the skin covers the IR sensor.
Edit: I received and installed the skin. Fits well. None of the tablet's features (power plug, buttons, speakers, etc.) are blocked. And yes, there is a hole for the IR sensor.
Hi Cat.
Please tell me what you think of the skin as I'm close to ordering one myself. Please tell me if its a tight fit (a must) and whether you think that it makes the tablet feel too think.
I really want one to make the tablet feel more solid in the hand. As much as I love Google and hate Apple I really miss the build quality of my old iPad 1. I also think HC is an abomination of an OS - What were Google thinking!!
Look forward to your report and pics would be nice if possible

I purchased a black skin (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) from Amazon.com, so go to their web site to see photographs. I like the skin. Its color is a perfect dark charcoal. It fits very well and tighly hugs the tablet's form. When I am handling the tablet, the skin does not feel like it is going to fall off and the back part does not feel floppy. It has a good industrial rubber feel and it makes the tablet feel more solid and protected, which is a plus for me because I am an industrial controls engineer and I frequently use my tablet in the field. The skin has openings in all the right places and does not block any of the tablet's features. I feel purchasing the skin was a wise choice.
Thanks for the update.
Looks like I will be purchasing one ASAP
I've just tried to purchase it off Amazon but they don't ship to the UK.
I'll have to purchase the one off ebay. It looks the same but you never know until you get it.
Just bought the one off ebay. Probably take about 2 weeks to get here. It was just over £11 with the exchange being as it is so can't grumble at the price.
Cheers.
Looks great, might look into something like this.

Do you have the Sony cradle and if so, does the tablet fit in there with the skin on it? Thanks!

Yes, I have a cradle and no, the tablet will not fit into the cradle if the skin is on it. But the skin is easy to remove and put back on (I do it carefully, taking my time), so it is not a problem for me.
Hi all.
I got the skin in the post the other day. I'm not too impressed with it TBH. It is not the snuggest of fits - its a bit loose.
I don't think I'll use it TBH. I'm getting used the plastic nature of the Tablet S.
Cheers.
Tapatalk misfire.
I'm also interested in buying a rubber skin for my Tablet S, and this one is the only one I can find (at eBay and Amazon). One user here says it's great and another says it's not so great... Anyone else has experience with these?
Ordered one on ebay
Hello All,
Just ordered on of those skins on Ebay in america...
Since im in Europe it might take a while for the thing to arrive..

I purchased a Black Silicone Skin from Amazon.com six weeks ago and so far it's held up nicely. I remove the skin nightly so I can put my tablet in its cradle and put the skin back on every morning, and today it still fits as snug as it did the first time I put it on my tablet.

Fitted case for galaxy player 5.0 (US)

I was looking for a type of case to protect my sgp 5.0 because I travel quite a lot. I have not been able to find a case anywhere in stores ( I know it is a very old device) and can somebody please tell me where to get a cheap but nice case. THANKS!

eBay or Amazon is probably be the best. eBay has flip like covers. Amazon barley has any cases, but i found one that i liked in Amazon for i think $15.

I'm not sure what you mean by fitted case but ebay has mostly TPU Gel (the very shiny ones) cases that are fitted. I was trying to find you the nillkin case but it seems that they don't either sale or make them anymore. To me it's the best fitted case. I found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Hard-...834129?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item337e82cf91.
This case is the one I bought on Amazon. I love this case. For some reason, this case makes me Galaxy Player 5.0 look bigger lol. It rubbery grips along the side to grip your Galaxy Player.All buttons are easily accessible. Altho the holes for the headphone jack is a big to small. But my earphones (Galaxy S3 earphones) fit fine. You may need to cut to make the hole a little bigger. I can post pictures of all the sides if you want. People posted pictures on Amazon and one of them is the bottom which has the slightly off center hole for the headphone jack.
